Jessie, Tammy and Dale, here is a poem I wrote for your dad. I wanted you three to have a copy. I love you
Aunt Alice
My Brother
A son, a brother, a husband, a father and a friend
Fly away; fly away to Heaven Ascend
Our Father is waiting, so hold out your hand
He cares not what you have done, he will understand
He will give you a halo and wings of great span
So look for the light and cross while you can
We love you and miss you, but we won’t say goodbye
Sweet brother for now we will just say goodnight
